WATCH: Xiyu Lin make the first hole-in-one of 2016 women’s Olympic golf

We have our first hole-in-one of the 2016 women's Olympic golf tournament, and it belongs to China's Xiyu Lin.

Xiyu made the ace on the par-3 eighth hole, measuring 140 yards, in Friday's third round at the Olympic Golf Course in Rio de Janeiro. Her ball landed just short of the hole, took a big bounce, then a small bounce and landed in the heart for a 1 on the card.
